My bass playing.

A long time friend (used to attend the same congregation in michigan) visited us a few months ago and said she closed her eyes during the song service and thought to herself "That's the good ole DaveW bass I remember!"

I do have an unusual style.


I didn't realize you are a bass player, Dave. How cool. That stuff definitely gets in the blood. My dad played bass professionally for over 50 years. He started with an upright and picked up bass guitar in the late 50s. I remember untold times when dad would say, "listen to the bassline." My brother, who also plays professionally, still plays my dad's '59 Fender.

back to topic.

I rarely get comments on my physical appearance.

Honestly, I always gotten a lot of 'you have such a great head on your shoulders' and 'you're so smart/mature.'

I was little paranoid in college about my looks because several people thought I was 30 instead of 20. I was beginning to wonder if I looked 30. My roommates thought that was funny and set me straight. It did make turning 30 really easy though. More like finally coming home. I didn't make a very good teenager.

Most people compliment my wit, humor, and ability to explain concepts they don't understand. I rarely get compliments on my "looks".

I normally hear "Are you okay?? you look pale as a ghost!"
and that is when I am knee deep in makeup.

I think there are definitely "old souls" so to speak. Some people are born 30 (emotionally and mentally), and that's okay. It is a good thing.

Hmm. I don't know if it's that good a thing, but it could be.

Well, I am a late bloomer.

That would be a bit disappointing though. I want to experience age. I don't really understand people who want to stay one age their whole life. It seems stagnant.

My girlfriend is so tiny, and it's so incredibly adorable.

Coming from a guy like myself. Then, yes, it would be given as a compliment.

That's kind of like saying, "you don't sweat much for a fat girl."

Calm down. I can say that because I am fat. LOL!!

almost everyone has called me sunshine at some point.
( <-- hard to believe, huh? )

In called gorgeous sometimes. I have huge brown eyes. Most guys call me pal, which is a compliment to me cuz they feel at ease around me.

I get compliments on my sweetness.

Which makes sense, because I'm sweeter than all the candy stores multiplied over cookies and ice cream.

Most compliments that come my way are something like "I like your face. It makes me laugh."
ummmmmmmmmmmmm i get the feeling that it's not very compliment-ish...
